Very nice lunch spot. I had the BLTE and it was perfect. Crunchy bacon but not over cooked, the egg was not runny nor hard. My wife had the ginger, honey pecan salad and it must have been great because she devoured it. I also had the broccoli cheese soup. It was very thick and creamy with just the right spices. Service could have been a little nicer.

Perfect. Seated promptly as it was not yet busy. Server great. Food arrived in timely manner. Had Floridian French toast, and I think it was an Italian Rustica Fritatta (or something like that). Both were wonderful. I'm a fan and this location on Wake Forest did not disappoint.

Great place… delicious breakfast and Britney our server was a delight too. She gave us some favorites and so glad she did. The tacos are amazing and my husband loved his skillet breakfast too.

This is a follow up to my original review. I never been bounced from a table here before. But be aware not to "linger" too long. Waitress was perfectly lovely, I don't know if it was the busboy, manager or someone else, but not me but my friend was asked if we could clear out. There were a few people waiting, but there was no line. Guess we'll find somewhere else to get together and catch up around the holidays.

been to many first watch locations and they never disappoint! always consistent with food and staff were super friendly. we ordered the smoked salmon eggs benedict, farmhouse hash, and the shrimp and grits. the smoked salmon was great and the potatoes are probably the best part of the meal! the hash was delicious was well. the shrimp and grits were good but the grits could’ve used more salt for my taste. still delicious nonetheless. i would come again to this location in the future. first watch is a great place for breakfast. i recommend getting on their waitlist to avoid long wait times too.
